How to find factors of a number in pair

Steps to find factors of 858 in pair

Example: Find factors of 858 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 858 1 x 858 = 858
2 and 429 2 x 429 = 858
3 and 286 3 x 286 = 858
6 and 143 6 x 143 = 858
11 and 78 11 x 78 = 858
13 and 66 13 x 66 = 858
22 and 39 22 x 39 = 858
26 and 33 26 x 33 = 858

Since the product of two negative numbers gives a positive number, the product of the negative values of both the numbers in a pair factor will also give 858. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 858 would be ( -1 , -858 ) .

What does factor pairs in mathematics mean?

In mathematics, factor pair of a number are all those possible combination which when multiplied together give the original number in return. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 858 are 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 , 11 , 13 , 22 , 26 , 33 , 39 , 66 , 78 , 143 , 286 , 429 , 858. So, factors of 858 in pair are (1,858), (2,429), (3,286), (6,143), (11,78), (13,66), (22,39), (26,33).

What is the definition of factors?

In mathematics, factors are number, algebraic expressions which when multiplied together produce desired product. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 858 is a factor of itself.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 13, 22, 26, 33, 39, 66, 78, 143, 286, 429, 858 are exact divisors of 858.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 858.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 858 x 0 = 0.

Steps to find Factors of 858

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 858 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 429 (half of 858). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    858 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 6 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 13 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 22 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 26 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 33 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 39 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 66 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 78 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 143 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 286 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 429 : Remainder = 0
    858 ÷ 858 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 858 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 13, 22, 26, 33, 39, 66, 78, 143, 286, 429, and 858
